Idk seems like some wacky crap you typed up to win an argument on the computer.

If that argument convinces anyone then that was an accident. More for laughs since it's

I knew how Bill was going to view the conflict. Ever since the movie Religiosity the man has made no secret his disdain for those that oppress people with religious fundamentalism. He just doesn’t vacillate on the topic out of a sense of tribalism like so many do. If you’re against it, you’re against it everywhere

Still can’t get over my hardcore progressive leftist friend’s brain getting tangled in knots saying “well, some cultures don’t mind being [religiously] oppressed”. Like what? Howwww? Like the trick is you just have to wait a few generations of doing it until people think it’s the only way to live? Just say you support Muslim religious fundamentalists only because tribalism. Trying to explain “well it’s ok for these people here, but not these people over here” just sounds crazy

And Bill does make some good points that sexual harassment of women, spousal rape, domestic violence, and child marriage are not prosecuted there

Ouch, hits with the “there’s no such thing as a moderate Republican” jab at the end though

God damn that's like my enlightenment post from a week or two ago, and I can't even go back and compare because it got deleted. Really takes the wind out of my sails to do anything but shitpost

yea here it is, cached by google:

Quote:
The Enlightenment was one of the best things to ever happen to humanity, it is the Western political legacy, and theocratic-Islamic societies like Palestine are wholly incompatible with that. Israel and Palestine have both done horrible things, but only one of them at least attempts to be a modern liberal democracy as well as an ally of the West. That alone should be enough of an impetus to not go waving Palestinian flags in the court of global public opinion and discourse. Just totally antithetical to US interests. And it doesn't matter how much of a contrarian, subversive political hipster you are-- fundamentally, Western interests are the path that leads to greater justice and liberation, when pitted against Islamic theocracy.
Bam! Fuck those maher writers ripping me off [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It's a Dawkins meme isn't it? I don't know what irony is but it's strange for religious conservatives to be spreading his ideas.

Anyways, free Palestine and oppose genocide.
Why has the PLO, despite coming from the PFLP (founded by a Christian), steadily increased persecution of Christians in Palestine? Why the increasing restrictions on women? It’s almost like the entire Middle East has been moving in the wrong direction since Zia took over Pakistan in 1978 and you and others are completely ignorant of the agency these people have for their own actions

It's not how Americans think but rather the shift in what Israelis think in response to what happened to Israel on Oct 7.

I was making the comparison because people, including myself, have said that Oct 7 was Israel's 9/11. I'm saying Oct 7th is actually 16x worse than 9/11 on a per capita basis.
Now do the math for the Palestinian side. How many 9/11s are happening daily in Gaza?

Do you support Free Palestine and the Hamas terrorist Oct 7 attack on Israel that involved rape of women and abduction of children, Smoofers?

If so then you are an anti-semite and you have zero moral standing on this matter.

None because 9/11 and 10/7 were done by Arabs.
